Radiant in Commercial

The Prince Albert local chapter for Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (SPCA) in Canada is in the middle of a construction project that will end with the creation of a new, modern facility. The Daily Herald reports that the agency has been working to develop the Paw Print Inn Boarding Kennel and off-leash dog park since 2009.
Officials broke ground on the project in the middle of April 2013 and everyone at the North Industrial Drive property seemed excited.
"This new facility will allow for a more homelike environment for the pets in our care. It will have dog rooms, cat community centres and habitats, where they'll live more normally like a home," Prince Albert SPCA manger Debbie Lehner told the news source.
The animal shelter is expected to incorporate a number of comfort-providing technologies including radiant floor heating. The utility system is expected to help reduce the operational costs associated with running the 12,000-square-foot property. The spacious environment will help volunteers and SPCA workers to care for the various animals that come in.
"What we're really excited about is radiant, heated floors so that the animals will no longer shiver and feel desolate on cold winter nights," Lehner told the news source.
The current SPCA location in Prince Albert is currently overbooked. At only 3,500 square feet it is dwarfed by the much larger replacement currently being constructed. The Daily Herald reports that this new facility will promote comfort for both humans and animals.
"It's a place where we as humans can show empathy for the other living animals that we share this planet with," Dan Yungwirth told the news source. "It's a place where families can find joy with a new pet, and a place where people can volunteer their services and make our community a better place."

The [low] waste factor is great

Warmboard-R is great! The install is quick and accurate with these light/small panels. I met with our contractor last night and he said the Warmboard-R panels had just arrived on his jobsite, but was surprised at the size. I told him I thought they were the ticket, and why. The [low] waste factor is great and the on-site fine adjustments are sweet. I stand behind everything I said about their feasibility in earlier emails - it's a cool product, and I'm sold!! P.S. The ability to adjust things on site is awesome. We even rose up and put It on a hearth. - Matthew O., Eureka, CA

Welcome to Warmboard, Simply Smarter Radiant Heat

Warmboard was invented in 1992 by Architect and entrepreneur Terry Alsberg. It has since become one of the fastest growing and most popular radiant heating systems. Two things drive growth and popularity of Warmboard:

More comfortable radiant floor heating

Warmboard adjusts its radiant heat output to quickly match changing heat loads throughout the day and night. This gives you the exact feeling of warmth you desire from a radiant floor heat system. The goal of any radiant floor heating system is to ensure that the temperature that you feel in your home is exactly the temperature you desire, and to maintain this ideal comfort minute by minute, hour by hour. No other radiant heat system can match the precise control and fast response of a low mass Warmboard radiant heat system.

More energy efficient radiant floor heating

Warmboard is simply more conductive compared to all the other radiant heat systems. The job of a radiant heat system is to conduct heat from water in a tube to the surface of a radiant floor. This is why in radiant floor heating, conductivity is king. It is a simple law of physics that as conductivity goes up, water temperature goes down. It always saves money to heat water to a lower temperature, and therefore Warmboard is more energy efficient than all other radiant heat systems.
